We are back in Berlin for our fifth event of 2025!
π¦ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. Itβs also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for games, talks, and connections with friends you havenβt met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Berlin every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. π
π HOW DOES IT WORK?
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. Youβll never have to speak in public if you donβt want to.
πΉ HOW TO JOIN?
Our events are limited to 30 handpicked guests to ensure a cozy atmosphere. We aim to curate events with similar age and gender groups wherever possible. If you're invited you'll receive a confirmation within 48 hours via Luma (our ticketing platform)

π WHAT THEY SAY
π£ βGreat way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!β - Matthias
π£ βF*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.β - Monika
π£ βI loved F*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!β - Brenda
π£ "Itβs a wonderful experience, itβs like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe youβll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara
